` awkward silences ;
a starter for @dhwhyunsu ! featuring a flash from the past x high school
god, if this isn’t the most awkward thing in the world. junhee shifts uncomfortably, trying to avoid looking at the person across the table from him. perhaps if their relationship was just that of partners, it would be less awkward, but the uncomfortable thing about this whole situation is how they used to be friends before everything went downhill.
truth be told, junhee still isn’t exactly sure why hyunsu suddenly started hating him. maybe he’ll never understand.
but internally, he curses their friend — they were supposed to help break the awkwardness, not make it worse, but of course — significant others come before friends, he guesses. not. ugh. all he knows is that they were friends and then suddenly they weren’t, and that was that. no questions, no answers, no nothing for song junhee!
it’s been years and now, after all the distasteful glances and muttered words, they’re working together on a project. but they’d chosen to come to cupid’s cafe of all places, reasoning that their mutual friend should be enough to keep the awkwardness at bay. but instead, now they’re stuck... in cupid’s cafe... together. he’s stuck with someone who hates him. great.
“well, um... shall we get started?” he asks uncomfortably, biting on his lower lip and shifting in his seat.
